Shah Rukh Khan’s Raees Gets Pathani Suits Back Into Trend

Ever since Shah Rukh Khan’s look in his forthcoming film, Raees, has come out, people have started giving pathani suits a miss and have started donning it.

Although the fashion of making an appearance in a pathani was always an option, now it seems like that’s the only option common people want to endorse.

Interestingly, news is of late there has been a surge in the sale of pathanis. In fact, requests for hand-stitched pathani have started coming in more. Tailors seem to busy meeting the requirements of consumers with such requests which have led to an increase in the sale of the attire across.

SRK, who has created a style statement of sorts in his crisp full black pathani, has become infectious across all age groups.

Looks like not just laymen but also our stars of Bollywood have given this look absolute thumbs up when we came across Salman Khan and Ajay Devgn in similar attire.
